James Bodenstedt owns hundreds of Wendy’s, Taco Bell, and Pizza Hut franchises. MUY (HQ is in San Antonio) is one of the largest private restaurant employers in the US.

Of the basic burger chains, I have always preferred Wendy’s, both for the food and its reluctance to follow the lockstep corporate liberals. Dave Thomas was a big supporter of adoption. And they make a good burger.

CFA still has its knee-jerk supporters here.

I know where I’m getting dinner tonight!

You better hurry and get in there before the Peaceable Assemblers in your city get there or everything will be cooked "extra well".

Again - this is a Marxist operation.

If you make proTrump posts on twitter they will dox you and notify your employer.

If you donate to Trump they will put you and punish you.

This is NOT America.

The PROPER response to this type of extortion is to simply DOUBLE-DOWN...but I’m done getting my hopes up.

I’ll bet you a Single with Cheese that Wendy’s will issue a clarification (apology, actually) within the next day or two. And included in that “clarification” will be a donation to some leftie organization.

It’d be nice to know what franchised restaurants they own - many of the Wendy’s around me suck.

Thanks, unfortunately (or fortunately as my Wendy’s suck) they’re not anywhere near me!

Pssst! Fox? Did you notice the word “Franchise” in the headline? That means it wasn’t Wendy’s, the corporation. And if the guy is making a private donation and he owns a bunch of food franchises across multiple brands — that’s his “political speech” and really nobody’s business. But if people want to hurt some other Wendy’s franchisee they are most likely going to because of your stupid article.
